Around 1985, Chesnutt moved to Athens and joined the band, The La-Di-Da's. After leaving that group he began performing solo on a regular basis at the 40 Watt Club; it was there that he was spotted by Michael Stipe of R.E.M.; Stipe produced Chesnutt's first two albums, Little (1990) and West of Rome (1991).

This must be a tough video for people to upvote who aren't already fans of Chesnutt, he's a little obscure for people who don't like good music. We already know you Sifters can put a quadriplegic in the top 15, but can you do it for one who doesn't get dumped out of his wheelchair onto his face by some fascist cop? Come on, he's really a great artist- vote one for the Chesnutt!

The guy playing Telecaster is Bill Frisell, an absolutely amazing guitar player. He's a genre-hopper but if you like his sound here, you might want to check out the albums Gone, Like a Train, Nashville, or East/West.
